Host was willing to work with us for early check in and was very responsive to inquires regarding the property. The house was well maintained with up to date appliances. The property was perfect for our 10 family members who came into town for my Son's wedding and it was conveniently located close to downtown without being in the urban environment.
Was used to visit family for thanksgiving and very fortunate to have such a spacious and pet friendly rental. The property manager was very helpful and communicated promptly for any questions I had. Excellent place to stay if one has pets they can’t live without and located within all the great restaurants that new Tampa area has to offer
We stayed at the Vandervort Retreat in Lutz to attend our son's graduation from USF. First, the locaiton is great; really convenient to the university.Second - everything was great! Mikey was very communication and check-in was a breeze. The house was very clean, beds were very comfy, everything was well-stocked and accommodating for all ages - amenities just for kids but plenty of seating and a great kitchen for adults. Highly recommend and we will definitely stay again in we are in Lutz.
